12 Songs That Name-Drop the Rolls-Royce Wraith | Playlist

Rappers have a deep love for a particular foreign car – The Rolls-Royce Wraith. This playlist examines 12 songs that reference the $300,000+ luxury coupe.

Rappers love their foreigns – aka foreign-made luxury cars. You’ll be hard-pressed to find a rapper (or singer for that matter) who doesn’t love Rolls-Royce, specifically the Wraith. Who can blame them for referencing the sick coupe as their foreign of choice? Just look at it, sigh. Ask yourself, who wouldn’t want to own that ride? Anyways, enough adoration for the Wraith – we have this playlist full of rappers/singers to accomplish that. Here friends is a playlist of 12 songs that name-drop the Wraith.

1. Kodak Black, “Tunnel Vision”

Painting Pictures

[Atlantic, 2017]

Kodak Black wastes little time on “Tunnel Vision” before name-dropping the Wraith. Following the hook, he asserts his ownership status.

Cozy Tapes, Vol. 2

[RCA, 2017]

“RAF” is an interesting flex record from A$AP MOB. Specifically, it references Belgian fashion designer Raf Simons. Generally, the song is about flaunting and spending money. Lil Uzi Vert drops the bomb – rather the Wraith:

“Hit that b*tch right, I’m with my Life Savers / Woo, feel like Darth Vader / I’m a boss so you know I might Wraith you / Woo, Raf in my basement.”

This isn’t the first time that A$AP Mob have name-dropped the Wraith. On “Yamborghini High,” A$AP Rocky brags:

“Yeah, I’m gettin’ cake, yeah, it’s no debate / Yeah, I fornicated with foreign hoes that I date, like every day / Yeah, I rock the Raf, yeah, I bought the Wraith / Yeah, I’m out of state, yeah, I like to race.”

6. Desiigner, “Panda”

New English,

[Def Jam, 2016]

On “Panda,” Desiigner isn’t obsessed with the Wraith like some of his contemporaries. His foreign of choice is the BMW X6, another sick ride. Still, he references the Wraith:

“Know some killas pull of and they in the Wraith…”

7. The Weeknd, “Starboy”

Starboy

[Republic, 2016]

On the third verse of his no. 1 hit, The Weeknd references the lux-sport phenomenon.

“Star Trek roof in that Wraith of Khan / Girls get loose when they hear this song / 100 on the dash get me close to God / We don’t pray for love, we just pray for cars.”

8. Meek Mill ft. Tory Lanez, “Litty”

DC4

[Atlantic, 2016]

On the first verse of “Litty,” Meek Mill confidently asserts:

“They don’t want to see you win (they don’t) / They don’t want to see the Wraith (no) / They don’t want to see your b*tch / Caught up in the stars like she outer space.”

Tory Lanez later joins the Wraith talk:

“Hopped in the Wraith and I bought it, it’s litty again… / They don’t want to see the squad / They don’t want to see the Wraith / They don’t want to see your b*tch up in the stars / Like she going outer space.”

9. DJ Khaled ft. Future & Jay-Z, “I Got the Keys”

Major Key

[Epic, 2016]

Holding the keys to a Rolls-Royce Wraith would certainly be a Major Key – rather a major set of keys or a major purchase (>$300,000). Guest Future gets the “Wraith talk” started on “I Got the Keys.”

“Wraith talk, Wraith talk / Oh, we talkin’ that Wraith talk.”

Jay-Z gets on the action as well:

“That Wraith talk, that’s foreign, n*gga.”

10. Meek Mill Ft. Future, “Jump Out the Face”

Dreams Worth More than Money

[Atlantic, 2015]

Long before he was featured on DJ Khaled hit “I Got the Keys,” Future rapped about the Wraith on Meek Mill joint, “Jump Out the Face.” He spits:

“Jump out the Rari then jump out the Wraith / Then I hop in Margiela then hope in some Bape.”

So, what’s his point? Future is big ballin’ – he has no shortage of money. In two lines alone he references a Ferrari, a Rolls- Royce, and two designer brands of clothing. Even before “Jump Out the Face,” Future asserted, “I had to grab the Wraith, I had to grab the Wraith” on his own hit, “Blow a Bag.” In the music video, just as he brags, there’s a Wraith.

11. Drake, “Back to Back”

[Cash Money, 2015]

While “Back to Back” is best known as the second diss track by Drake aimed at Meek Mill, the Canadian artist found a fitting moment to brag about his Wraith.
